Good learning (especially e-learning) starts with good storyboarding. Here are some examples of design documents and storyboards created for e-learning modules. 

Skills: organization, analysis, development, content development 

What people need are opportunities to explore and experiment with new technologies in a safe place where mistakes don’t matter. I accomplished this through Tech Sandboxes, where a few colleagues and I would join virtually and simply play with technology, just like we would play in the sandbox as a kid. There were no mistakes, and we could create whatever we wanted. By the end, though, participants had created something they could use immediately in their work. 

In 2018 I was working as an educational technology advisor for Purdue Extension. In that role, one of my primary objectives was to present new ideas, whether software or a practice, that would reach and teach new audiences. I was asked to present at a professional development conference. While racking my brain to come up with something meaningful, I chose microlearning. Microlearning was new (to us), innovative, and fit perfectly with the organization. I developed two separate workshops with hands-on activities to help others develop educational microlearning. 

Evaluating learning happens at all levels – from piloting an e-learning module before launch to gathering learner feedback and evaluating the outcomes of the training. 

As important as evaluation is, it is often the most overlooked. I strive to incorporate evaluation that captures useful feedback from learners to improve the learning event. This often occurs as a post-training evaluation (often using Kirkpatrick's Model). Specific examples are not shared here but are available upon request.
